When 1/3rd of an AI team were designers …

When one of the the fastest-growing, most-loved AI products says 1/3rd of their early team were designers*… 

We, Should. Listen.

The most prevailing narrative in AI is still:

Hire engineers. Scale infra. Pray the model carries you.

Gamma flipped that on its head. 

For them design wasn’t downstream (once the model works).

But the first 4 of the 12 hires!

The message from their success is loud and clear for all “GPT wrappers”.

If you want to win in AI, don’t just out-model competitors.

Out-design them.
